Figure 8: Typical guided bending test plot obtained on a not corroded specimen.

Figure 9: Cyclic guided bending test results on a corroded specimen ◆ deformation angle under load, ◼ deformation angle without load (elastic recovery) ▲ residual angle deformation after heating at 70 °C for 1 minute (shape memory recovery).

a) As corroded

b) 1° cycle, plunger shift 5 mm

c) 5°cycle, plunger shift 5 mm
